Not a bad idea to be a little self protective - I'm more careful than I used to be about what I read too. I think when there's alot of passion (like there is in fandom), there's alot of passion in all sorts of directions, and sometimes that can be painful. I don't understand why so many people get so polarized, as it's not how I enjoy watching, but I think whenever you have alot of strong feelings, there's that risk. People care, and want things to go whichever way they want them. I enjoy going along for the ride, wherever that takes me :)

*big hugs* Fandom is hard, yo.
